712whp Evo in Turbomag

Anyone seen this in the Feb 2005 issue of Turbo mag? It has a red evo on tha front cover. Its equipped wit a HKS t51 turbo which barely fits in the bay. wit 10psi they tested it and it had around 400+hp. Amazing beast. Injectors are somewhere near 2000cc's. Has dual HKS SSQV bov's. 4 inch piping, Went to turbo mag's site but didnt see the article. Anyone wanna scan and post it would be nice. Its a freakin amazing car. Mag also has a moderately stock looking (mazdaspeed bodykit) rx8 wit 950hp. 2 beasts in 1 mag. Check it out

Thats the Boost Solutions Evo, it is a sore subject on this site as many people were screwed by that company, do a search and you'll see...

I picked up a copy. Real impressive numbers. Look at the 949hp RX-8. Nice turbo kit. They had trouble with loosing power up top. Sick car though.

i believe they got 712whp outta 32psi. Yup its the Boost solutions evo. Its a pretty sick car. Love the massive FMIC and the piping. NO it is def not a stock motor. THe motor was blueprinted and cryo treated from what i read.

As far as I know, the car literally sounds sick. my bro video taped it while he was up there a few months ago. On Idle the car sounds threatening.

from what i heard it wasnt using nitro yet but it was planningon using it for the track to spool the monster turbo quicker. i could be very wrong though but RnR with @.4 block and i think a GT35R made upper 600 wheel with no nos so im sure with a turbo as big as the one on the red car no nitro was used

if it was the same as they where planning then it was a custom 2.3 ltr stroker (prob using OE 100mm crank). turbo is the HKS51????, can churn out about 1000ps (well over 900bhp) i think the cooler uses a Supra core. they had trouble with a single BOV as it kept bloing the air filter off! i also remember them saying they where looking to run the thing at around 45psi. Boost solutions also said that they may be usinf a 100shot of N2O to help spool the turbo. also using very high lift (around 12mm i think) cams.

nice show case car but i think RnR 2.4 Gt35R engine would be better for the road!

thanks Chris.
